Film

New adaptation

Taiwan stars Alec Su and Ruby Lin team up again in the thriller, The Devotion of Suspect X, based on Japanese author Keigo Higashino's award-wining novel of the same title. In the film, which is Su's second directorial feature, Lin stars as a divorced mother who inadvertently kills her ex-husband. Su says the Chinese version of The Devotion of Suspect X is different from the earlier Japanese and South Korean versions, as required by Higashino, one of the most famous novelists in Japan. The movie, which is being screened on the Chinese mainland, will also be released in Australia, New Zealand, North America, Singapore and the United Kingdom, says the Chinese producer Enlight Media.
